Hopefully


I always look hopefully into the eyes of love

And hope I'm seen.

I Watched


I watched
as the embers of the world cooled
I watched
so much lost
and still
my last thoughts were of you.

In A Few


You
You're gonna be good
in a few
Make someone happy
Feel like they should
Me?
Eh, who knows?
Already my heart glows
and the rest,
well, we've covered those
Bye baby
we'll see
whose somebody you'll be
Maybe you're for me
ever after
happily

Ghosts


Let's fall in Love
despite all of the glorious
ghosts of the past;
how I tried to hide them 
under sheets.

Walking Away


How far How long
can I watch him walk away
until he becomes
part of the landscape?

Character


It's not broken
It has character
And I'm recycling it
Not throwing it out.

Locked In


Locked in
Paused
Not in love?
Where am I?  I was promised it would complete me
but I am lost.
Is this how it's supposed to feel?
Double crossed.
To belong to someone else;
actually outlawed long ago
I told him yes
but probably meant no.
